World's Biggest Flea Market
by Carl Huber
| producer of PiG INC
The web is about being able to stumble around the world's biggest flea market. There are kids hawking their toy collections, there are musicians selling their tapes and cds and T-shirts, there are vendors selling food, there are slick stalls selling books and videos, there are fans selling 'zines, and one day you may discover a stall with a like minded soul and chat for a couple of hours on common topics, but tomorrow he might not be there, and in his place is a chick chatting about her life, and as you over listen you become inspired, and the next day you drag along a wobbly table and some drawings you did with no intention of selling them - you just wanna be part of it and have some fun. But you get ripped off by a guy selling parking space, and spend the day chatting with folk who suffered like you, before they met this guy who showed them how to sneak in the back.
Sometimes it feels barren and cold, other times a single written line inspires me like I was a kid again.
And I feel the sun.
I always write something after visiting your site. I love that, and I love
the web.
